This fresh pineapple salsa recipe is sweet, zesty, slightly spicy, and bursting with juicy tropical flavor. Made with fresh pineapple, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and crisp peppers, it’s the perfect salsa for chips, tacos, grilled chicken, seafood, and summer BBQs.

It only takes a few minutes to make, but somehow tastes like the kind of thing you’d order at a beachside restaurant on vacation.

We used to think homemade salsa was too much work until we finally found a few fresh salsa recipes we absolutely loved. Turns out, once you start making salsa at home, it’s hard to go back to store-bought.

Now we keep this pineapple salsa on repeat all summer long alongside our restaurant-style salsa, authentic salsa verde, and mango salsa.

This pineapple salsa is especially delicious for taco night, grilling season, pool parties, and easy summer appetizers.

Ditch the ranch dressing! This is the creamiest garlic herb veggie dip and it’s perfect for parties and gatherings! This vegetable dip is WAY better than any store-bought dip!

This homemade veggie dip is creamy, flavorful, and packed with a blend of dried and fresh herbs. It comes together in minutes and is made with simple ingredients like mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic, and fresh herbs, this dip is perfectly balanced.

Ranch is what eventually convinced me as an incredibly picky child to like salad. I would put a little ranch dressing on a plate and dip my croutons in it, as in literally no salad, just bread and ranch, but the love affair continues to this day!

While I have embraced salad, all kinds of veggies are really amazing, and creamy ranch dip remains my heart’s favorite thing ever, this garlic herb dip blows every ranch dressing out of the water!

Ingredients You’ll Need…

Head to the produce section and grab all the vegetables you need for dipping. These are the rest of the ingredients you will need:

  • Mayonnaise: The creamy base that makes this dip rich, smooth, and totally irresistible.
  • Sour Cream: Adds a subtle tang and lightens things up just enough for the perfect balance.
  • Dried Parsley: Brings a mild, earthy flavor and a little pop of bright herbiness.
  • Dried Tarragon: Slightly sweet herb with a hint of anise, this gives the dip that “what is that amazing flavor?” moment.
  • Fresh Dill: Bright, fresh, and unmistakably herby that makes the dip taste fresh instead of flat.
  • Fresh Basil: Adds a soft, slightly sweet herb flavor that pairs beautifully with the garlic and dill.
  • Garlic Powder: Gives you that bold garlic flavor without overpowering the dip.
  • Onion Powder: Adds depth and savory flavor that keeps every bite interesting.
  • Smoked Paprika: Just a touch for warmth and subtle smokiness.
  • Salt and Pepper: Simple but essential for bringing all those flavors together.
  • Veggies: The means for getting this outrageous dip into your mouth! Use whatever vegetables are your favorite.

I don’t know about you, but I kind of miss the old days where holiday parties were filled with friends bringing their “famous” dish to every holiday party. That tradition, the investment in offering a little of their time and love to a gathering of friends and family seems a little lost with the convenience of the world.

But I’m bringing it back.

Whether it’s our famous Baked Brie or Peggy’s Creamy Baked Artichoke Dip, there’s room for everyone and every taste bud at my house. In fact, come on, I can’t be the only one that misses the nostalgia of family favorite recipes showing up around the holidays.

This is one of those recipes that has evolved over time and has become one of my favorites. I drew some inspiration from our creamy avocado cilantro dressing, but in this salad dressing recipe, I mix up the herbs and amounts sometimes depending on what I have on hand or what is in season. I’ve even served it over roasted corn for a corn salad once. So good! It’s just one of my go-to, most favorite things ever.

We used this fresh basil salad dressing on our BLT pasta salad once and we have never used any other dressing on it since. It is just so bright and fresh and the perfect creaminess and zesty flavor for that pasta salad recipe. Scroll down to the section below for more ideas of how to use this dressing recipe.

Easy Brownie Batter Dessert Dip

Our girls have started cooking more and more, and while I love it, I also want to make sure that it always stays fun and not merely a means to eat. We found this darling new cookbook by Aimee from Like Mother Like Daughter called 50 Fixes for Brownie Mixes and knew it would be just perfect for Friday movie nights.

One of the most important things we want to teach our children is that family matters. We spend time together, we talk about silly stuff, real stuff and future stuff.

A good friend once told me that her mother taught her that her siblings were her best friends. If ever it became clear that siblings weren’t being nice to each other or constantly wanting to be with friends and not family, then they had a few days where it was sister time and they could only play with each other. What a lovely idea! To this day they are all the best of friends and that’s something to admire.

We now choose to do the same. In fact, our girls have been having sister dates. I take them somewhere and just sit back and watch them choose ice cream together or whatever.

I’m getting off topic, this brownie cookbook was a great chance for our girls to spend time together doing something fun. They can choose to cook from the cookbook whenever they want as long as it’s together. It’s so fun trying their new creations and this last weekend it was brownie batter dip. This chocolate dip is so good!!

The whole cookbook is loaded with beautiful pictures, easy recipes, and it’s all thanks to brownies — Cade’s Achilles heal. 😉 So maybe this Christmas do the same for your kids and just see what happens when they start making memories and yummy food together.
